Optimized use of material

Another very important factor to consider in terms of economy and environment is how we use the surface of the panel for individual pcb layout.

This can have a significant effect on the price. The more cards we can get out of each panel, the better economies and it is also very important for the environment to have as little waste as possible.

In this example below the number of cards from same production panel varies from 12 to 45 pieces!

Panels routed and scored with panel bars typically 7-12 mm wide on two sides usually provide good yield with no assembly problems.
